Celestalon, Technical Game Designer on World of Warcraft, Moves to the Hearthstone Team
Chadd "Celestalon" Nervig has left the World of Warcraft development team and is moving to the Hearthstone team! He was a Technical Game Designer on WoW, a self-proclaimed lover of spreadsheets, and a wizard when it came to styling epic hair. He was quite a voice in the WoW community, we hope that extends over here once he's settled in.
Welcome to the Hearthstone Team, Celestalon!
Quote from Chadd NervigClasses, systems, spreadsheets, the occasional obscure questline... These have been the primary focus of my life for years now. I cannot thank the WoW community enough, for your passion, your friendship, the laughs, the excitement, for being able to do something I love.
It has been an honor. But the time has come for me to adventure elsewhere within Azeroth, and tackle a different challenge... Cards! I'll see you soon, Hearthstone fans!
The comments on your sister-site http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/7254-Celestalon-Moves-to-Hearthstone-Team?page=10#comments do not b(r)ode well...
Well, they are listening to the community. Heard they brought this guy because he's a good translator, so they can make the new beasts to work with rexxar DK.
This community is a salt mine, I hope you brought your thickest armor.
The horde of Demons await you young one. Do not disapoint them, one mistake and you will be shredded to pieces. And the Demons are the community...
WoW players must be happy to be rid of him.
Ion: Ok Chadd...so we are gonna double down again on the direction of WoW because the player base doesn't know what fun is..
Chadd: ahh <Emails Ben> So what do you think of a +3 purple dragon in Hearthstone?
Ben: <Replys to Chadd> Your hired! Have you tried Purify in a deck yet? Ahhahahahahahahaha. (yes Ben types out the Laugh)
Is the purple thing a WoW reference I don't get?
Probably just mentioning that he really likes purple.
Greeting! Fellow Seeker of Truth
Welcome Celestalon! Glad to have you on board. Tho, you have much to learn about a proper wording, young one :D
Why not 4mana 7-7? Would fit HS balance much better!
Astounding!
Heh, Greetings
